i logged on around the same time and was 1010 in the queue

I got a standing ticket there for €138, pricy but they are one of the few bands I was into as a kid that I haven't seen yet so feck it!

Got a standing ticket in the presale for €87, not bad value as I'm getting Biohazard and Sacred Reich in too. I doubt it will top the Olympia gig but nice to see them one last time before the inevitable classic lineup reunion

Thanks for the presale link Halo, got a front standing ticket there now. I would have gone to the 3 Arena gig but didn't know the support acts but Idles are great live, saw them in Vicar Street touring their 2nd album,.

Really looking forward to seeing Udo, he is some character, must have around 100 albums at this stage

According to Olympia website Dirkschneider are on from 7.45 to 8.45 and Saxon 9.15 to 11.00

Was just on her to ask the same thing. How was Biff after his heart attack?

Got my ticket for €80 so must have been €100 for the first three rows.

I'm in the 5th row so should have a good view. I've seen Elvis Costello and Suede play there before and the sound was good but first time seeing a metal band playing there.

I'm going  though I might piss off after Megadeth as I'll be driving back to Longford.

The Presale code for the artist presale is LASTWILL. I got a ticket there now €80 for lower level ticket.

I know Trail of Tears is a blatant Alice in Chains ripoff but as a massive AIC fan I've always liked it so was happy enough with them playing it though The Ballad or The Legacy would have been better options alright.

I thought Obituary were fucking amazing, even better than their slot supporting Sepultura last year. I got goosebumps during the start of Dying. I was there to see Testament and though I really enjoyed them, Obituary blew them away. Was great to hear stuff from The Ritual and Low as they were the first two Testament tapes I bought as a teenager back in the 90s I thought the two new somgs were very good live and I didn't think much of them when i listened to them on Spotify. Caught most of Destruction's set too and they were good, all in all a great night's entertainment.

I'm one of those auld lads Pentagrimes was on about thought it was agreat gig, I caught half of OP's set and enjoyed it, I liked their use of electronics which added something different, Would I listen to them in the car? No but they were good live. I really enjoyed BI, great to see hear in full one of my favourite new metal albums of the last 10 years but I'm shocking bad at buying new bands albums but I have the house full of the latest releases from the old 90's thrash metal bands that I never listen to
Finishing with Obliquity was class, I'd definietly go to see them again. Off to see Testament and Obituary tonight, place will be full of auld lads like myself
